The volume of an average breath is approximately 500ml or 1 US pint. Typical resting adult respiratory
rates are 10-20 breaths per minute with one third of the breath time in inhalation.
This can vary depending upon the degree of relaxation and anxiety. Most people with lung disease end
up breathing continually in an anxious state, thereby compounding the problem.
Even a small amount of high intensive interval exercises can dramatically improve the lung capacity.
The goal is to significantly reduce your breaths to around 6 breaths per minute when you are relaxed.
An average human breathes around 11,000 litres of air (21% of which consists of oxygen)
per day. If you have a lung condition, your goal is to get better than that average, through
the recovery plan.
The Goal:
6 breaths
per minute.
COPD affects 35 million people living in the United States and is the fourth leading cause
of death.
COPD is crippling and can sometimes be life-threatening.
A diet lacking in enzymes, nutrients, and healthy foods may also contribute to COPD. Susceptibility
to infections is a concern and more likely under these circumstances.
Repeated infections result from a less than perfect, compromised immune system.
Although cystic fibrosis is a gene problem with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, bronchiectasis and
some rare forms of bullous lung diseases may be factors as well.
Who is suffering?
COPD can occur at any age, but it's most common in middle-aged adults (45-65).
COPD does not cater to any gender. Almost as many women as men struggle with this lung
disease. Yet men are often more susceptible to emphysema.

Any kind of vegetables - focusing on non-starchy vegetables, especially dark leafy greens.
(Yams/sweet potatoes are fine in moderation.)
Legumes (beans, peas, lentils of all kinds).
Alternatives to grains and cereals (quinoa, millet, buckwheat, and other seeds).
Low-sugar, dark-skinned fruits like avocados, blueberries, blackberries, black currants, etc.
Hemp seeds daily.

Bronchitis
What is it?
Bronchitis is inflammation of the mucous
membranes of the airways that carry airflow
into the lungs. Bronchitis can be acute or
chronic.
Acute bronchitis can be a cough. It often occurs
during the course of an acute, viral illness such
as the common cold or influenza. Viruses cause
about 90% of cases of acute bronchitis, whereas
bacteria account for less than 10%.
Chronic bronchitis, a type of COPD (chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease), is a cough
that lasts for three months or more per year
for at least two years. Chronic bronchitis most
often develops due to recurrent injury to the
airways caused by inhaled irritants. Cigarette
smoking is the most common cause, followed
by air pollution and occupational exposure to
irritants.

Bronchiectasis
What is it?
Bronchiectasis (pronounced brong-kee-ECK-tah-sis) is a relatively rare condition that affects the lungs. Infants and older children get it more often than adults, but adults do get it. Unless there are complications, it
is not serious, but it can be a lifestyle problem, especially when combined with other health issues.
Bronchiectasis is incurable and can stop people from living a normal life, unless the right
treatment plan is used.
In bronchiectasis the bronchial tubes become enlarged and distended, forming pockets where infection
may gather. The walls themselves are damaged, which results in impairment to the lungs complex cleaning
system. The tiny hairs, which line the bronchial tubes and sweep them free of dust, germs and excess mucus,
are destroyed. When this cleaning system is not working effectively, dust, mucus, and bacteria accumulate.
Infection develops and is difficult to remove.

Cystic Fibrosis
What is it?
A gene disorder of the cells that line the lungs, small
intestines, sweat glands, and pancreas. Mucus that
houses infection contributes to the destruction of
lung tissue and impedes gas exchange in the lungs. It
also prevents the absorption of nutrients in the small
intestines by blocking ducts from the pancreas that
release digestive enzymes. It is the most common
life-threatening genetic disease among Caucasian
groups, although it affects all races and ethnic groups.
Chronic under-nutrition, along with weight loss and
growth failure, are the precursors of premature death.
It is imperative to prevent, with perfect nutrition, the
symptoms of this chronic under-nutrition, such as:
Underweight
Pancreatic insufficiency
Fat mal-absorption
Abdominal pains
Gut obstruction
Rectal prolapse
Gastro-oesophageal
Reflux (heartburn)

Bronchial Asthma
What is it?
Asthma is a range of similar diseases that can have a variety of
causes. Asthma can be life-threatening if left to simply taking drugs
and so has to be taken very seriously.
Allergic reactions
Vigorous exercise
Infections
Emotional stress/anxiety and excitement

Pulmonary Tuberculosis
What is it?
A contagious bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB). The lungs are primarily
involved, but the infection can spread to other organs. Tuberculosis is spread from person to person
through the air. When people with TB in their lungs or throat cough, laugh, sneeze, sing, or even talk, the
germs that cause TB may be spread into the air. If an unhealthy person or someone with a weak immune
system breathes in these germs, there is a chance that they will become infected with tuberculosis.

Pulmonary Rehabilitation
This has over 30 years of research and is defined on
the web as:
Pulmonary rehabilitation (a.k.a. pulmonary rehab)
is a rehabilitation treatment structured for ill
patients with chronic respiratory problems whose
pulmonary function has decreased, even after
other medical treatment.
A program that can help you learn how to breathe
easier and improve your quality of life. It includes
treatment, exercise training, education, and
coaching.
A personalized program which incorporates
therapy, support, and education in attempting
to assist the person to achieve the maximum
obtainable functional capacity allowed by his/her
handicap.
Charles Denison first documented Pulmonary Rehabilitation improvements in 1895, and hundreds of studies have been
published since then. Of course, the pharmaceutical business would prefer they did not exist, and everyone was stuck with
taking their drugs, but you are now learning there is a better way.
The Pulmonary Rehabilitation program is detailed over the following pages and, when
carefully followed, will show results within weeks.
"It will be a good day when drug companies are totally banned from contacting or
influencing doctors both directly and indirectly. It will be a good day when the information
doctors need to prescribe is made available from an independent body that has a legal
responsibility to ensure the efficacy and safety of drugs."

The following protocol works for any lung problem, to some extent.
6
Clearing inflammation and
promoting healing.
2
Strengthening your immune
system.
3
Taking nutrients missing from
food in supplement form.
Breathing properly.
Stimulating acupressure
points.
10
Avoiding unnatural/junk
foods.
It is almost unheard of for a person applying a good percentage of these lifestyle changes to their daily life to not clear their
lung symptoms to some extent, and in many cases completely.

28
Eat 9-14 portions of fresh or frozen veggies daily (in soups, juiced, stirfrys, steamed, etc.); 50% raw juiced (use the pulp in soups) and organic
if possible. Blended makes for better digestion.
Avocados are the all-time super food with nearly a full spectrum of
nutrients. If they are available where you live, make sure you have at
least 2 per day for good health recovery. All lung issues (as well as
cancer and heart disease) are helped by these.
Eat 5 portions of beans, nuts, and seeds (soaked and mashed for
the nuts and seeds).
If you want to eat meat, then choose pasture-fed meats or chicken and
eat only a small amount weekly. Grass-fed is healthier than grain or
corn-fed animals.
29
If you eat fish, then eat at least 3-4 portions per week of oily
fish and vary it by choosing fish such as salmon, sardines,
mackerel, etc. Even canned fish is very nutritious, and wild
caught fish is best.
Include Hemp, Omega 3, or Krill oil and other healthy oils like
Olive oil and Coconut oil.
Take 3-5 (depending upon your body mass and the heat)
teaspoons of Sea or Rock Salt daily in food or a little water.
Sea or Rock Salt does not contain the critical mineral iodine so
add Nascent Iodine to your daily dose.

Move shoulders
naturally and freely.
Gently tighten
stomach muscles.
Swing your arms in a
natural motion while
walking briskly.
Lie down in a comfortable place. On your bed, (if its firm enough), when you first
wake up is a great time and place for this. Bring a knee up to your chest as high as
you can get it and then alternate with the other knee. Do as many of these as you
can while keeping count. Do this every day and set yourself targets to increase the
speed and the number as the weeks go by. You should be doing enough to make
your lungs and heart beat faster. At the same time, as you improve your count on
your back you need to be starting your walking and building this up.
The second great exercise for strengthening your lungs is to build up slowly where
you can exercise at maximum rate for 2 minutes, 6 times per day. It does not
matter what exercise you do, e.g. skipping, star jumps, running on the spot; just
about anything, as long as your heart and lungs are working at maximum capacity.
By working at maximum rate, your lungs and muscles connected with your heart
and lungs will get stronger.

8. Breathing Properly.
It is critical to breathe properly, especially
when you have unhealthy lungs. There are
two ways to breathe. The first one is an
anxious breath in the chest, and the second
is a relaxed breath in the diaphragm, or more
precisely, in the tummy area.
The first breath in the chest is part of the
stress response and involves hormones such
as cortisol. This type of breathing should last
no longer than it takes to deal with a problem
in life and then another hormone kicks in to
create relaxed breathing. If this stress type
of breathing becomes chronic or habitual,
then the cortisol and retained carbon dioxide
become part of the problem, and the bodys
natural healthy systems cannot function
properly. It also weakens the immune system
and opens you up to infections, which is the
last thing you need with unhealthy lungs.

Recommendations:
A. Get as much skin exposed to the sun
as you can every day, e.g. on your daily
walk.
B. Build up slowly from the spring to
summer time.
C. Try not to stay out in the middle of
the day without covering up, and cover
up rather than use a barrier cream.
D. If you do use a sun cream, get an
organic one rather than chemical ones
with well known names.
E. Remember, the sun is your friend,
and as with friends, try not to get too
much in one go!

Acupressure Stimulation
Stimulating a certain point in the centre of the chest
helps to relax and improve breathing. This point can be
effectively and safely stimulated using the HealthPoint
electroacupressure kit. The advantage of the kit is it gives
you the power to precisely locate the acupuncture point,
and indeed other points, so you can enjoy the benefits of
acupuncture at home and without any needles.
HealthPoint is easy to use, painless, and effective, and
includes an instructional DVD and book covering over 150
pain and non-pain conditions that can be helped, such as
headaches, back, neck, and joint problems.
The gentle and systematic stimulation of the bodys
natural healing system can speed recovery in many cases.
HealthPoint breakthrough technology was developed by
leading pain control specialist Dr Julian Kenyon 19 years
ago, and today features the latest microchip technology
to quickly locate acupuncture points key to specific health
conditions, such as the centre chest point Cv17 for better
breathing.

In conclusion:
The fourth leading cause of death is lung disease.
1. Heart disease
2. Cancer
3. Stroke
4. Lung diseases
Lung disease is essentially a lifestyle disease, meaning if the lifestyle is changed, there is every likelihood of some
recovery. With the changes in this 10 Step Plan put into effect, the body is perfectly capable of healing and recovering
good health.
